Practical information
7In the event of contact with the eyes,
immediately rinse the eyes with large
amounts of water or with an eye wash
solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical
attention if you feel a persistent burning
sensation or irritation.
Never go underneath the vehicle raised
using a jack; always use an axle
stand-type support.
When working on the vehicle's electrical
system, take care not to cause a short circuit -
risk of burns and fire.
Flammable products and all sources of heat
(sparks, for example) must be kept away from
the battery, the fuel tank and all components
of the fuel system.
Never run the engine in a closed space
without sufficient ventilation; always use a
ventilation system such as an exhaust gas
extractor, for example.
Never leave liquids (oil, coolant) unattended.
Keep these liquids out of the reach of children
and animals.
The liquids and components replaced must have the same characteristics and
comply with the manufacturer's
recommendations.
General checks
Check the following components to ensure
proper operation and longevity of the vehicle.
For more information on the components
to be
checked, refer to the Checking levels, Checks
and Advice on care
sections.
Daily checks
Check that all vehicle lamps (front and
rear) are working properly.
Check the condition of the door mirrors and
the adjustment controls.
Check that all the doors can be opened,
closed and locked correctly.
Regularly check all levels, the condition of the
tyres and the bodywork.
Monthly checks
Check:
–
The engine coolant level.
–
The absence of leaks on all the pipes and
hoses visible on the vehicle as well as the
tanks.
–
The proper functioning of the elements of
the: •
Heating and ventilation system.
•
Air conditioning system.
•
Parking brake (application and release).
•
Horn.
–
The tightening of the wheel nuts (if
necessary
, retighten them to the specific
tightening values).
–
The good condition of the wipers.
– The absence of significant play in the
steering wheel and steering.
–
The correct travel of the brake pedal as
well as the clutch pedal.
General recommendations
related to maintenance
operations
Electronic engine management
computer
The electronic computer is not completely
waterproof. When performing maintenance
in the rain or washing the engine, it must be
protected from water.
Never remove or disconnect any part of the
electronic injection system to avoid the entry
of moisture, oil or any other foreign body.
Do not install a radio antenna or other
equipment likely to generate interference near
the electronic computer.
Do not expose the electronic computer to a
temperature higher than 105°C.
Before any welding operation on the vehicle,
it is essential to disconnect the electronic
computer - risk of damage to the electronic
system components.
Fuel system
All work on the fuel system must be
carried out only by a PEUGEOT dealer or a
qualified workshop.

► Clean the seal face using a clean, lint-free
cloth.
► Screw the new filter back on, making sure
that the seal is correctly positioned against the
contact surface.
► Tighten the Diesel fuel filter correctly with
your hands without forcing to avoid leaks.
After the operation, bleed the air contained in the fuel system.

For more information on Engine oil and in
particular on oil filling and checking the level,
refer to the corresponding section.
Always change engine oil with an oil corresponding to the engine and in
accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations.
Never start the engine without oil - risk of
serious damage to the engine!
Be careful, the oil is a petroleum-based
product. It is harmful if swallowed and
irritating to the skin and eyes.
Keep the drained oil out of the reach of
children and animals.

► Switch off the engine and the ignition.
► Disconnect connector 1
from the throttle
body.
►
Loosen the clamp 2
on the air hose.
►
Disconnect the air hose A

seal does not fall.
When the throttle body is removed,
always make sure that no debris or dust
enters the engine air intake pipe or the intake
manifold - risk of serious damage to the
engine!
Never start the engine when the throttle body
is removed.
Cleaning the throttle body
Before cleaning, make sure that you
correctly protect the electrical connector
of the throttle body against any projection of
liquid (oil, water, detergent or solvent).
►
Remove grease and carbon deposits from
the surface of the main duct with a specific
"carburettor" type cleaner
.
►
Rotate the throttle valve inside the duct to
clean the seats on each side.
►
Wipe and dry the throttle body with a soft,
lint-free cloth.
If no cleaning has been done for a long
time, deposits may be difficult to remove.
Clean and wipe the throttle body
several
times with a soft, lint-free cloth.
Never immerse the throttle body in a
cleaning liquid or in an ultrasonic tank.
Never use:
–
detergents containing methyl ketone or
other highly corrosive substances as well as
household cleaning detergent;
–
cleaning products directly on the throttle
bearings as well as on the body's connector;
–
hard, sharp or abrasive tools to remove
difficult deposits. Use a soft cloth with a
suitable detergent.
Refitting the throttle body
Before refitting the throttle body, check
the condition of the seal. If it is damaged,
replace it with a new one.

Driving
6Driving recommendations
► Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.► Monitor your surroundings and keep your hands on the wheel to be able to react to
anything that may happen any time.
► Drive smoothly, anticipate the need for braking and maintain a longer safety distance,
especially in bad weather.
► Stop the vehicle to carry out operations that require close attention (such as adjustments).► During long trips, take a break every 2 hours.
On flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded
roads, as this could cause serious damage to the
engine or gearbox, as well as to your vehicle's
electrical systems.
If the vehicle absolutely must drive through a
flooded section of road:
► Check that the depth of the water does not exceed 60 cm, taking account of waves that might be generated by other users.
► Drive as slowly as possible without stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h).► Do not stop and do not switch off the engine.On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety
conditions allow, make several light brake
applications to dry the brake discs and pads.
If in doubt about the state of your vehicle,
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
After driving on a flooded road, you must
have the level and condition of the oil in
the front and rear transmission axles checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Towing
Driving with a trailer places greater
demands on the towing vehicle and
particular care must be taken.
Do not exceed the maximum towable
weights.
At altitude: reduce the maximum load by
10% per 1,000 metres of altitude; the lower
air density at high altitudes decreases engine
performance.
New vehicle: do not tow a trailer until the
vehicle has driven at least 620 miles
(1,000 kilometres).
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the
vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Hill start assist
System which briefly keeps the vehicle stationary (for approximately 2 seconds) when making a hill start, while you transfer your foot from the brake
pedal to the accelerator pedal.
It is only active when:
– The vehicle is completely stationary , with your foot on the brake pedal.– Certain slope conditions are met.– The driver’s door is closed.
Do not leave the vehicle while it is being
held temporarily by hill start assist.
If someone needs to get out of the vehicle
with the engine running, apply the parking
brake manually. Then check that the parking
brake indicator lamp is on fixed on the
instrument panel.
The hill start assist function cannot be deactivated. However, use of the parking
brake to immobilise the vehicle interrupts its
operation.
